His mother took his hand and asked, "Bopsy, did you ever think about what you wanted to be when you grew up?""Mommy, I always wanted to be a fireman when I grew up."Later that day she went to the fire department, where she met Fireman Bob. She explained her son's final wish and asked if it might be possible to give her six-year-old son a ride around the block on a fire engine. Fireman Bob said, "Look, we can do better than that. We’ll make him an honorary fireman for the whole day. He can come down to the fire station, eat with us, go out on all the fire calls, the whole nine yards! And, we'll get a real fire uniform made for him."Three days later Fireman Bob picked up Bopsy, dressed him in his fire uniform and escorted ( 护送) him from his hospital bed to the waiting hook and ladder truck. Bopsy was in heaven.Having his dream come true, with all the love and attention that was lavished（慷慨给予）upon him, Bopsy lived three months longer than any doctor thought possible.One night all of his vital signs began to drop and the head nurse called the fire chief and asked if it would be possible to send a fireman in uniform to the hospital to be with Bopsy as he made his transition. The chief replied, "We can do better than that. We'll be there in five minutes. Will you please do me a favor? When you hear the sirens（警报器）screaming and see the lights flashing, will you announce over the PA system that it's just the fire department coming to see one of its finest members one more time? And will you open the window to his room?"About five minutes later a hook and ladder truck arrived at the hospital, extended its ladder up toBopsy's third floor open window and 14 firemen and two fire-women climbed up the ladder into Bopsy's room. They hugged him and held him and told him how much they loved him. With his dying breath, Bopsy looked up at the fire chief and said, "Chief, am I really a fireman now?"With those words, Bopsy smiled and closed his eyes for the last time.11.Why did Bopsy's mother go to the fire department?A.Her son wanted to get a fire uniform.B.Her son wanted to ride on a fire engine.C.She wanted her son to become a real fireman.D.She wanted to help her son to realize his dream.12.What did Fireman Bob probably mean by saying "the whole nine yards" in the third paragraph?A.The fire engine was nine yards long.B.The whole journey that day was very upsetting.C.Bopsy could experience everything as a fireman.D.All the sirens of the fire engines would scream that day.13.Why did the head nurse want a fireman in uniform to be sent to the hospital?A.Because Bopsy begged her to do so.B.Because Bopsy saw the firemen as his family members.C.Because she wanted Bopsy to be approved as a real fireman.D.Because she wanted to do something for Bopsy before he died.14.Which of the following statements best shows the theme of the passage?A.Where there is a will, there is a way.B.Sometimes there are miracles because of love.C.Great things may be done by painstaking efforts.D.A mother understands what a child does not say.CThirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends—532, actually, if you count up her online friends. And she spends a lot of time with them.But is it possible that Kaylee’s online friendships could be making her lonely? That’s what some experts believe. Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch, they say. However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendships.Could this be true? During your parents’ childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them in the flesh. Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones. When friends missed each other, they picked up the telephone. Friends might even write letters to each other.Today, most communication takes place online. A typical teen sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen. Much of this time is spent on social media platforms(平台).In fact, in many ways, online communication can make friendships stronger, “There’s definitely a positive influence. Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,” says Katie Davis, co-author of The App Generation.Other experts, however, warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendships. “If we are constantly checking in with our virtual words, we will have l ittle time for our real-world friendships.” says Larry Rosen, a professor at California State University. Rosen also worries that today’s kids might mistake the “friends” on the social media for true friends in life. However, in tough times, you don’t need someone to like your picture or share your blogs. You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand. You would like to talk face to face.15.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A.To summarize the text.B.To tell about true friends.C.To bring up a discussion.D.To encourage online friendship.16.What does the underlined part “in the flesh” mean in Paragraph 3?A. In any case.B. In person.C. In full measure.D. In advance.17.What is Katie’s attitude towards online communication?A. Worried.B. Unconcerned.C. Confused.D. Positive.18.What view does Rosen hold?A.It’s wise to turn to friends online.B.It’s easier to develop friendships in reality.C.Teenagers need focus on real-world friendships.D.Social media help people stay closely connected.DClimate change, not human hunting, may have destroyed the thylacine (袋狼), according toa new study based on DNA from thylacine bones.The meat-eating marsupials ( 有袋动物) died out on mainland Australia a few thousand years ago, but survived in Tasmania, an island of southeast Australia separated from the mainland, until the 1930s. Until now, scientists have believed the cause of this mainland extinction ( 灭绝) was increased activity from native Australians and dingoes (Australian wild dogs).Scientists behind the University of Adelaide study, which was published in the Journal of Biogeography on Thursday, collected 51 new thylacine DNA samples from fossil (化石) bones and museum skins. The paper concluded that climate change starting about 4,000 years ago was likely the main cause of the mainland extinction.The ancient DNA showed that the mainland extinction of thylacines was rapid, and not the result of loss of genetic diversity (基因多样性). There was also evidence of a population crash (大跌) in thylacines in Tasmania at the same period of time, reducing their numbers and genetic diversity.Professor Jeremy Austin said Tasmania would have been protected from mainland Australia's warmer, drier climate because of its higher rainfall. He argued that climate change was "the only thing that could have caused, or at least started, an extinction on the mainland and caused a population crash in Tasmania.”"They both happened at about the same time, and the other two things that have been talked about in the past that may have driven thylacines to extinction on the mainland were dingoes and humans. So the only explanation that's left is climate change. And because that population crash happened at the same time that the species (物种) went extinct on the mainland, our argument is there's a common theme there and the only common theme is that there is this change in climate."19.What did scientists believe in the past according to the passage?A.Marsupials were all meat-eating animals.B.Dingoes should be removed from Australia.C.Thylacines had no enemies on mainland Australia.D.Human activities may cause the extinction of thylacines.20.What's the difference between mainland Australia and Tasmania?A.Tasmania has more dingoes.B.Tasmania has more rainy days.C.Tasmania has a higher temperature.D.Tasmania has more native activities.21.Which of the following statements strongly supported Jeremy Austin’s argument?A.something similar happened on mainland Australia and TasmaniaB.Tasmania was protected from mainland Australia's warmer climateC.humans and dingoes may have driven thylacines to extinctionD.mainland Australia suffered from much higher rainfall in the past22.What's the best title for the passage?A.The effect of climate change on wildlifeB.The cause of disappearance of thylacinesC.The result of warmer climate in AustraliaD.The ways of protecting meat-eating animals阅读21-23BAC 24-27DCDB 28-31CBDC 32-35DBAB山东省临沂市临沭县2020-2021学年度高一英语期中试卷第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分,满分37. 5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Can we play Prodigy?” After a quick thinking of how much screen time they’ve already had for the week and how much peace and quiet I need to finish my work, I accept．After all, Prodigy is a role-playing video game thatencourages kids to practice math facts．It’s educational．Right?Though video games are increasingly making their way into classrooms, scientists say the facts are lacking (缺乏) on whether they can actually improve learning．Some of the first evidence (证据) that gaming may train the brain came from first-person shooter games．It was first found by C．Shawn Green, an undergraduate studying at the University of Rochester in New York．He gave his friends a test of visual (视觉的) attention, and their scores were amazing．He and his research adviser, Daphne Bavelier, thought there must have been a problem in the test．But when Bavelier took the test, her scores were normal．The difference was that Green’s friends had all been devoting more than 10 hours per week to Team Fortress Classic, a first-person shooter game．In other studies, researchers found that gamers who trained on Tetris were better at moving two-dimensional (空间的) shapes than those who played a control game．Students who played two hours of All You Can E．T．improved their focus-shifting skills compared with students who played a word search game．Not surprisingly, the skills that games can improve are the ones that players end up practicing over and over during the course of play．The next step is to figure out how these findings may translate to the classroom．Although this research is still developing, I’m sure about my own kids’ ever-increasing requests for screen time—especially when they beg to play games designed to help them master math．32．What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A．To lead in the topic．B．To explain what Prodigy is．C．To introduce the author’s family．D．To prove the importance of video games．33．What does the underlined word “they” in the second paragraph refer to?A．Video games．B．Classrooms．C．Scientists．D．Facts．34．Who did the best in the test of visual attention?A．Mr．Green．B．Mrs．Bavelier．C．Green’s friends．D．A graduate．35．Why can those playing Tetris do well in turning two-dimensional shapes?A．Tetris is only a control game．B．They focus on shifting skills．C．They practise the relative skills many times．D．The skills needed are similar to those in word search games．Goolsbee, now a professor at the University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business, said the rising number of Americans out of work forever paints a troubling picture about the recovery (恢复)．“If we are on path to only be two-thirds recovered,” Goolsbee wrote, “and then have millions of businesses closed down and the jobs there lost fast, there will be years for us to try to get back onto the path we were on before．”And those everlasting job losses will influence the economy．People out of work may cutback spending or even stop it．They are at risk of falling behind on car payments, credit card bills and bank loan (贷款)．Those risks are magnified by the fact that the government has so far failed to provide additional economic recovery policies (政策) — even though the US economy is in great need of them．“Good insurance (保险) policies for people out of work have helped them pay the loan muc h more easily,” Principal’s Shah wrote, “but with everlasting job losses clearly rising and still no sign of an additional economic recovery package, the trouble will become more widespread and obvious．”The hope is that those recognized as jobless at present will in the end get a job somewhere else．Even though some restaurants, shops and small businesses have shut down, new companies are opening each day here and there．But there is a time limit at play because the time of continuously out of job influences the chances of getting another job．“The longer you’re out of the job market,” said PNC’s Faucher, “the more difficult it becomes to find a new one．” Many Americans who had a job loss or had a too long vacation without any payment are eagerly looking forward to another job．36．What does the underlined word “magnified” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Reduced．B．Enlarged．C．Avoided．D．Unchanged．37．What’s Shah’s attitude towards the government’s present economy policies? A．Supportive．B．Confused．C．Disappointed．D．Uninterested．38．What can we learn about the Americans out of work?A．Losing jobs gets them out of the job market．B．They have more opportunities to have vacations．C．They successfully get offers from new companies．D．Losing jobs for long makes it harder to find a new one．39．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．The jobless usually spend less．B．Insurance companies offer necessary loans．C．More job losses suggest a dark economy future．D．The economy recovery depends on the government．四、七选五Ways to Keep Your Eyes HealthyAbout 12 million Americans over 40 have some form of vision impairment (视力障碍)．40．So make sure they have the support they need．Learn how to care for your eye health and keep potential problems in control．So what can you do to keep yours eyes healthy?● 41．Eye problems aren’t always obvious, so seeing an eye-doctor for a full eye exam is a good idea．This type of exam can check for eye diseases while they’re still in early period and earlier to treat．● Protect your eyes．Slip on UV-blocking sunglasses when you’re outside, even if it’s cloudy out．And wear safety glasses or goggles when doing home repairs or playing sports．● Give your eyes a break．42．We don’t know how blue light influences vision over time, but in the short t erm, all those screens can cause eye stress and dry eyes．Take regular screen breaks, and talk to your eye doctor if your dry eye lasts for a long period of time．● Choose a healthy diet．Increase eye health with fruits and vegetables high in vitamins A, C, and E, like sweet potatoes, oranges, pines, and more．Cold-water fish containing omega-3 fatty acids can help protect eyes．43．● Take care of your contact (隐形眼镜)．Follow your doctor’s instructions for contact care and only use contact solution to store and clean them．44．Turn to Health Grades to connect with the right eye-doctor to check and treat any eye disease．A．Get a full eye exam．B．Choose the proper eye-doctor．C．Your eyes work hard for you every day．D．Also beans are nice food to keep your eyes fit．E．You’d better do eye exercises at least twice a day．F．Mistreating your contacts can cause eye pain, and even vision loss．G．The common adult spends about 11 hours staring at screens every day．五、书面表达45.假定你是李华，新学期你校来了一位英国留学生Mark。

1. Country WalksHope villageA leisurely （悠闲的） way to spend an hour or two is by visiting the busy village of Hope with its lovely country gardens. A gentle walk towards the hills will soon bring you to excellent views.Country ParkThe Lime House here attracts thousands of visitors, but this is a pleasant walk away from the crowds, through parkland, woods and up onto the hills. Popular with bird-watchers. Allow three hours. The house was built in 1570.CornfordThis is an easy walk through a little-known valley. See the 200-year-old buildings from the cloth-making industry which now stand empty.Devonshire ParkAllow at least half a day, or make it a full day by visiting the adventure playground and farmyard. Stop at thecafe （open all day） or enjoy the fantastic gardens. Guided walks are available （可获得的） for small groups.Howden lakeThis two-hour walk attracts thousands of visitors. Children can go sailing on the lake with trainers.StantonThis walk is certainly for very fit walkers only-the paths get very slippery （滑的） after rain. Allow six hours and start early! You're unlikely to meet another person all day. Be sure to pack food-you'll be up on the hilltops all day.StrinesYou need to be used to walking to successfully complete this seven-hour walk through the wildest scenery in the area. Follow a little-known footpath to the highest point for miles.LangsettThis is an exciting walk along easy paths, which are crowded at weekend. And it s a popular place for family picnics. Guided walks start from the near village （10am Sundays） and visit 800-year-old woodland.（1）What is special about Country Park？________A. It includes a house for making cloth.B. It is in a little-known valley.C. It enjoys popularity among bird-watchers.．D. It should be booked ahead of time.（2）What do Devonshire Park and Langsett have in common？________A. They are open for half a day.B. They offer guided walks.C. They have adventure playgrounds.．D. They are for small groups.（3）Which of the following is only suitable for very strong walkers？________A. Stanton.B. Cornford.C. Howden Lake.．D. Hope Village.2. Like any new ninth-grader on the first day of school, Joemar Class had ninth-grader feeling. He's not used to school in Hartford. He's used to going to school in his home town of Florida, used to seeing his friends, used to having class in Spanish."Nervioso, " he said in Spanish.We first met Joemar in mid-October in the San Juan Airport. His father, Guillermo Class, had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico. The island was almost destroyed （毁坏） by the deadly storm-Hurricane Maria.Now, they are settling into their new home in Hartford's South End. A week later, and, using his wife's car, Class drove 16-year-old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School. After a short ride, he got out in front of his new school. Inside, he met Gretchen Levitz-the school's program director."I see you have new uniform （校服）, " Levitz said. "You look great. Are you ready for a good first day? "Then he met couple of teachers."Hello," they each said in Spanish. They asked where he's from, and told him they were happy to see him. Then Levitz took him on a quick tour of the school before classes began-to her office, the school store, the library, and the dining hall.A total of 19 languages are spoken in Bulkeley High School. "We have so many new students coming here from other countries every single day," Levitz said. "So it's not like he's the only one who has that feeling.""You could tell he's little worried," Guillermo said as we left. "But, at the same time, he's looking forward to it."（1）What does the underlined word "Nervioso" in paragraph 2 probably mean？________A. Excited.B. Frightened.C. Nervous.．D. Relaxed.（2）Why did Joemar leave Florida？________A. His town was hit by a terrible storm.B. His old school closed down.C. He expected to have a new life.．D. He wanted to see his mother.（3）What did Joemar do before he walked into his new classroom？________A. He learned some simple Spanish words.B. He had a short look around his new school.C. He had a long talk with his father.．D. He said hello to some of his classmates.（4）What can we learn about Bulkeley High School？________A. It plans to open Spanish classes.B. It has no library.C. It requires all students to wear uniforms.．D. It is an international school.3. Teenagers have their own TV channels, websites and magazines. So what about books?Last year one publisher, Martins, started publishing a series called Waves. We spoke to the director Julia Smith. She explained, "Teenage fiction （小说） has been published since the 1970s but publishers have never been very successful in getting teenagers to buy and read books. Now they're realizing that teenagers are just older children, but are not adults either. They are often not interested in adult fiction. For this series we are looking for new writers who write especially for teenagers."Athene Gorr's novel was published in the series last year and is selling well. Its title is The Purple Ring. She says, "The important thing is to encourage teenagers to pick up your book. I'm a new writer. Although I've got an unusual name which people might remember, nobody knows it yet! But my book has a fantastic cover which makes people want to look inside. Then they realize what an excellent story it is!"And what do teenagers themselves think about the series? We talked to Sophie Clarke, aged 15. She said, "I've read a few books in the Waves series. They say they are for 14-19 year olds and I agree with that. We're not interested in the same things as people in their twenties and thirties. I like them and I think they look really good too. The only thing is that because bookshops put them in the children section, lots of teenagers won't find them so they may not do very well. And it's a shame there's no such series as I think lots of teenagers, especially boys, might buy."（1）What can we infer from paragraph 2？________A. Teenagers should be encouraged to read.B. The Waves series are suitable for adults.C. It is necessary to publish books aimed at teenagers.．D. Teenagers are more interested in reading nowadays.（2）What makes The Purple Ring catch people's eye？________A. Its price.B. Its cover.C. Its title.．D. Its writer.（3）What do we know about the Waves series？________A. They are popular with teenage boys.B. They are about real facts.C. They have attractive covers.．D. They are wrongly placed in the children section.（4）What does the author intend to do with the text？________A. To encourage more writers to create fictions for teenagers.B. To compare different series of teenage fiction.C. To explain why teenage fiction is easier to write than adult fiction.．D. To give information about a new series of books.4. When you visit Kinderdijk, one of the most visited villages in the Netherlands, you step right into the middle of Dutch history.Kinderdijk lies in the Alblasserwaard, where the Lek and Noord rivers meet together. Much of the village is near or even below sea level. Although there are canals and dykes （堤坝）, the lowlands of the village are still at risk of flooding （洪灾）. Among the most deadly floods was Saint Elisabeth's flood in 1421, which killed thousands after the dykes broke in several places. To deal with this kind of problem, the Kinderdijk windmills （风车） were built around 1740 to move water from the lower areas to higher ground and into the river.Nineteen of the 20 Kinderdijk windmills remain and were named a UNESCO World Heritage （遗产） Sitein 1997. Of the 19 windmills, 16 still have millers who live inside and control the huge sails （翼板） in thewind. These windmills continue to help manage the Netherlands ongoing fight to stay above water.For tourists, boat tours are offered along the canals and walkways lead from the visitor center to the windmills. Two windmills serve as museums, filled with old millers' items and photos. You can climb up inside to see how the windmills work. The windmills also are working, so be prepared to feel the whole building shake when the sails turn in the wind.Each year, about 500, 000 people visit the Kinderdijk windmills and the buildings have become a must-see on any trip to the Netherlands. There are some windmills north of Amsterdam that "were built for tourists, but we're a historical site where tourists come, so it's the other way around," says Kinderdijk communications manager Peter Paul Klapwijk. "Tourism is a good way to support our site."（1）Why were the Kinderdijk windmills built around 1740？________A. To produce clean water.B. To protect dykes.C. To keep the sea level from rising.．D. To prevent floods.（2）What can we learn about Kinderdijk windmills？________A. Most of them have become museums.B. Most of them are working as before.C. Several of them were destroyed long ago.．D. Several of them have been sold to millers.（3）How does Peter Paul Klapwijk feel about so many tourists visiting the windmills？________A. Worried.B. Fearful.C. Surprised.．D. Excited.（4）What does the text mainly introduce？________A. A famous historical siteB. The history of KinderdijkC. The traditions of the Netherlands．D. An amazing village of canals第二节（共1小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

One evening, after a long day of hard work, the farmer returned home with the donkeys and began to tie them to the stakes(桩). When he finished nine donkeys, he found that the tenth rope was gone.What now? He could not let the last donkey run around all night. It would surely run away. Suddenly, he saw that, under a tree, there was a monk(和尚). The farmer ran to the monk and asked for voice. The monk said, “The only thing you have to do to the tenth donkey is make the movements(动作) you would have made with a rope in your hands. Pretend (假装) to tie the donkey. That’s all.”The farmer returned to the tenth donkey, pretended to fasten(拴紧) a rope around its neck and then to tie the rope to a stake. He then entered his little house, half trusting the monk’s advice, half worried that his donk ey would run away in the middle of the night.When he went outside very early the next morning, all the donkeys were still standing nicely next to their stakes, even the tenth one. The farmer untied the donkeys and wanted to take them to the field. But to his surprise, donkey number ten refused to move an inch. The farmer pulled and shouted but the animal just didn’t move.Suddenly, the farmer thought of what he had done to the donkey the night before. With a great “ah ha”, he returned to donkey number ten,and just after a simple movement the donkey happily walked with him to the field.24. What was the farmer’s problem when he tied the donkey?A. He needed one more rope.B. The tenth stake was gone.C. The tenth donkey ran away.D. He had left a rope in the field.25. Following the monk’s advice, what did the farmer do?A.

Pretending to cut the tenth rope.D. Trying the tenth donkey with a real rope.CFirst Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. V olunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference.

In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.32.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time.B. By space.C. By comparisonD.By example.33.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A. Espresso.B. Lungo.C. Cappuccino.D. Macchiato.34.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.35.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.The cup it is served in is too small.D.It is a good choice for breakfast.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

山东省2020-2021学年高一上学期10月英语试卷精选汇编：阅读理解专题
阅读理解专题山东师范大学附属中学2020-2021学年高一10月月考英语试卷第一节（共10 小题；每小题2 分，满分20 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C 和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AI think the biggest difference between middle and high school is the homework load (工作量) and size of the school. I went from maybe fifteen minutes of homework a night to several hours, so I had to learn how to make full use of time! Our class size is around 550, but joining in clubs, sports, music, and other activities at school makes it easier to get to know people in every grade.The best advice I can give about the years you spend in high school is to learn things for yourself, not just to get a good grade. There have been so many tests that I’ve prepared for the night before. I have gotten an A, and not remembered anything later. I’ve changed th at this year, and I enjoy school so much more. Don’t take easy classes just to have a simple year. If you have a choice between chemistry and sports, the first will prove to be a lot more useful!While drinking and smoking might be present in some middle schools, they’re also around in high schools. I have a lot of friends who promised they’d never drink or smoke, but are now partying every weekend. If you have “fun” and spend your nights wasted instead of studying, you will regret it when you’re applying f or (申请) college. The “friends” who say you’re a loser for not partying are really not your friends at all. It’s hard to see your closest friends grow apart and go in different directions, but don’t follow their footsteps. Create your own path in life and make your own decisions.36.What does the author think of high school?A.It requires hard work.B.There are very few activities.C.It’s hard to meet new people there.D.There isn’t enough time for homework.37.The author advises high school students to .A.give up sportsB.choose useful classesC.try their best to get good gradesD.get ready for tests the night before38.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A.The importance of making friends.B.Not losing ourselves in high school.C.Not going to any party in high school.D.The trouble caused by drinking and smoking.BTo most of us, school means classes, teachers, schedules, grades and tests. But for the children at Sudbury Valley School, Massachusetts, school is very different.Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want to. There are no teachers —only "staff members". The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to learn anyway. "You do not need to say to a three-year-old, 'Go to explore your environment.' You can't stop them!" says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the school. "But if you make children do what you want all day, they will lose all taste for learning."At Sudbury Valley School, you will permit children to talk, read, paint, cook, work on computers, study French, play the piano, climb trees, or just run around. Two boys spent three years just fishing!The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote each—even the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school budget, and even which staff they want and do not want any more.When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.39.What is the main topic of the article?A.An unusual school.B.Children's hobbies.C.A school without rules.cation in the US.40.What does the school believe?A.Teachers cannot teach children well.B.Children learn best by doing what they want.C.Learning is for adults rather than children.D.Children should do what teachers tell them.41.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Parents well accepted the school.B.Some students have been ignored.C.Fishing is good for students’ study.D.The school’s idea succeeds in some way.CSome students get so nervous before a test. They do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highlyanxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when they worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源) .Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12% worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%. Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B-for those who did not."What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who'd done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don't normally get nervous in these tests."But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance.42.What may the students start worrying about before an exam?A.Whether they can pass the exams.B.What other students do during the test.C.Whether they have remembered the materials.D.What kind of problems they will meet on the test paper.43.What is the solution developed by researchers?A.Asking the students to ignore the test.B.Asking the students to focus on the test.C.Asking the students to sit quietly before the test.D.Asking the students to write about their worries before the test.44.According to Professor Beilock, those who thought about things unrelated to the test .A.became less nervous before the testB.were better at controlling their feelingsC.did worse than those who wrote about their feelingsD.did better than those who wrote about their feelings45.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.Writing about our worries before an exam can work a bit.B.We can only write about our worries right before an exam.C.The best place to write about our worries is in the test room.DIt doesn't matter where we write about our worries before an exam.山东省新高考测评联盟2020-2021学年高二上学期10月联考英语试卷第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
